I love this Presidency.
Total. Disaster.
But her emails!
It's a damn shame he didn't do all of this via email. It would make it much easier to prove it to be true or false.
(Please note that I think it is true but there's always a chance that it's bullshit and being blown out of proportion.)
SAN FRANCISCO — Two Israeli intelligence officials confirmed to BuzzFeed News Tuesday that Israel had shared specific intelligence with the US regarding ISIS plots to smuggle explosive laptops onto planes, and that it appeared that that intelligence had been shared with Russia without prior coordination.
The revelation that Trump had shared that intelligence with Russian officials was Israel's "worst fears confirmed," said one of the intelligence officers.
"We have an arrangement with America which is unique to the world of intelligence sharing. We do not have this relationship with any other country," said the officer, who spoke to BuzzFeed News on condition of anonymity as he was not granted permission to speak to the press.
"There is a special understanding of security cooperation between our countries," he said. "To know that this intelligence is shared with others, without our prior knowledge? That is, for us, our worst fears confirmed."

Damn, putting another countries & strong allies spy in danger is a big deal.
Shit is about to go down, I think.
This guy just picked up a few thousand Twitter followers.
I feel like we need an "Oh shit!" rating for this.
There we go, a timeline has been set. Hopefully this can all be sorted out on the 24th.
James Comey asked to testify before House investigative committee
Former FBI director James Comey has been invited testify before the congressional committee on oversight and government reform committee next week.
The committee — the primary investigative body within the House of Representatives — has set a hearing for May 24 to investigate whether U.S. President Donald Trump interfered in an FBI probe into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
Committee chair Jason Chaffetz said Wednesday that Comey has been asked to testify at the hearing.

Does he have to tell the truth or anything at all?
Comey Damns Trump By Saying He Didn't Write Memos On Obama Because Obama Was Truthful
Pamela Brown reported, “Even though he liked to create paper trails through his years at the Justice Department and the FBI, it was not common practice for him to document conversations with senior officials unless he thought it was significant. Conversations that Comey had with Trump he documented. In one memo, Anderson, he included a description of the President talking to him about crowd size at the inauguration. The source I spoke to said Comey did not do this with President Obama in part because he had fewer one on one conversations with the president, and as the source said, in Comey’s view, there was no need to document the conversations with people that are truthful or situations that are routine.”
When Republicans inevitably ask, why didn’t Comey have memos about Obama? The answer is that Obama kept their conversations routine and truthful. Comey had no need to write memos about Obama because the former president was honest and professional.
